Oh dear, thought he had everything to develop into a top striker- but no brain.

Totally agree for 80 mins we look a very impressive team.
Last 10 mins not so, our squad/subs did not influence game.
Wolves got a point because of their bench being so much stronger than ours.
Our overall spend in 2019 is nil and it showed itself today in those final seconds.

Up to half are under embargo, they cannot replace sales, place an unacceptable large transfer fee and keep the player - makes more sense than selling and cannot replace.
